Chapter 349 - Her Wedding Dress
Hailee has been staring at her reflection for a long time already. She just finished washing up, and now it's time for her nightly routine of putting skincare on her face.
Vince was in his study room having a video conference with his directors and business partners. He has many things to take care of before his training starts.
She has nothing to worry about as Vince can manage a company, so it will be easy for him to be familiar with how Davies Corporation operates.
Hailee finished exfoliating her face. She followed the next steps, until last, the night cream and anti-aging serum that's left to put on her face.
She should have felt refreshed now; however, she is only pretending in front of everyone that she is okay. Honestly, Eva's death brought sadness to her heart.
Even though Eva did many wrong things toward her, she is not fond of making other people's lives miserable.. Eva is sent to prison is something she deserves after she works for Liam.
Hailee could not really hate Eva, even if she hated her so much. She wants Eva paid for what she did but not to kill her.
She actually died because of her, and this made her feel down. Even Liam was already behind bars, and despite that, he could still harm other people because of her.
"Hailee!"
It shocked her when someone shouted her name at the door.
"Hail, where are you?"
"I was in the closet!" she shouted from inside; three girls rushed to the wardrobe. "What's wrong?" she asked curiously, puzzled why they were full of enthusiasm. She wondered if something had happened.
"Let's go, Hail!" Both Nadia and Liza hold her arms, but they release them after they remember she was pregnant.
"We have to see if your dress fits on you!" Hazel said with excitement written all over her face. It was as if she was the one who was getting married, and Liza and Nadia were also smiling widely.
"What dress?" Hailee asked, confused. It seemed like her head wasn't working properly at the moment, and she forgot something because she was still lost thinking about Eva's death.
"Is there any other dress you are dying to see?" the three girls exclaimed.
That's right! There is only one dress she wants to see at this very moment, of course!
"Do you mean? Girls, you are not kidding me. In these passing weeks, you guys are doing everything that I could not sneak in to see my wedding dress."
"We are serious, Hail! Sister Janise asks us to get you and bring you to the guest room."
"Okay! But I need to get dressed first!"
The three girls scanned her. Indeed, she is only wearing a pink satin robe.
"I think that's already perfect! You will try on your wedding gown, so it's okay if you have nothing on!"
Hailee giggled and followed the three teenagers. Anyway, she is wearing a red thong inside as she only needs to put on the slip dress before she goes to bed.
They arrived in the room, and the three girls had a trick. They asked her to close her eyes, and they put a blindfold around her head.
"Come, Hail!"
Vera took Hailee's right arm and Deana on the other arm. Sheena and Jessa were filming this moment while Kelly, Gigi, and Janise held her wedding dress.
She had no idea what was going on, but she just let them lead her inside the room.
"Hail, you need to raise your foot." Gigi guided her. "You are going to put on your dress, so you have to step inside."
"Okay."
Hailee followed what she was told to do. She lifted her right foot first, then her left. She felt a fabric touching her skin.
"Let us take your robe," said Vera, gesturing at Hazel. Instantly, Hazel came closer and helped Hailee take off the robe.
The girl gasps, seeing what she is only wearing.
"Damn, Hail. You really knew how to seduce your husband." There is a tease in Gigi's voice that made the three teenagers giggled.
"Like you, girls are not doing the same," she pouted. She then giggled afterward.
"We don't have a husband yet!" Janise, Vera, and the three teenagers instantly reacted to Hailee's statement. They all giggled while helping Hailee dress up.
"Well, Alex and I were not sleeping yet. I mean, we're sharing a bed, but not that one thing. So, I am avoiding wearing lingerie!"
"Oh, my gosh! That was impressive of my cousin!" Vera mouthed proudly. She will give a pat to her cousin for being a gentleman after lying down next to a woman.
"He said he will wait as he respects my culture."
"Ah. I wish I could meet a man like Prince Alex!" Hazel mouthed dreamily. Then she twitched her mouth after she remembered Jake. "Not a man who never misses bringing all his girlfriends to bed."
Nadia and Liza shared a knowing look. They were familiar with Hazel's character, and so they knew she murdered someone on her head once again.
"You girls are young, and you will meet Mr. Right at the perfect time," said Gigi.
Although Hailee didn't see Gigi, she could hear her voice, enough for her to know that she was in front of her, and so, she instantly hugged Gigi and followed by the other girls.
They all heard about Gigi's life when she was forced to marry Galvin Huo. It was a miserable and hellish marriage.
It was supposed to be a joyous night. But Gigi was so touched when the girls hugged her, and she couldn't control her tears flooding her eyes.
"Thank you, girls. I am truly saying this as my experience. Tom and I have already met before, and he already liked me back then. But I was a married woman to the wrong man at that time..."
Hazel, Liza, and Nadia understood what Gigi was trying to advise them.
"But that perfect time came, sister Gigi!" said Nadia.
Gigi nodded at the younger girl, reaching for Nadia's hand to squeeze them.
"Yes. And I am not only dreaming because I have evidence here." Gigi gently stroked her baby bump she could notice now.
"The right guy arrived at the perfect time!" Hazel quoted this over again.
Gigi smiled as she recalled that dinner encounter with Liam and Galvin; then, Tom arrived at the perfect time. Until now, she could not believe that it was the beginning of her true happiness.
"Girls, this conversation is perfect for the documentary!" Jessa's head was already flooded with the caption she will put into when she posts this scene as a teaser. "I will use a few clips of this scene to post in my IG account, Hail. Is that okay?"
"I guess so? But not that part. I am bare but only wearing a thong, right?"
"Sister Jessa won't dare." Sheena laughs.
"Or Vincent would kill me!" Jessa could imagine Vince's mad face. No, and she definitely would not dare! "Don't worry, Hail. I will not include the part where you are showing your sexy baby bump!"
"I should wear a bra at least," she said.
"But you don't need it. The style I made for your wedding dress is a V-neckline."
"Oh. Looks stunning!" She could already imagine the dress as it slowly hugged her curves.
"Alright! Let's continue dressing up, Hailee! She's been blindfolded for a long time now." Gigi announced, clapped her hands twice before she helped Kelly hold the gown while Janise pulled up the zipper.
"Alright, Hail. We are taking off the blindfold," said Vera, untying the blindfold from her head.
Hailee reaches for her eyes to cover them. Inside her palm, she opened her eyes to adjust to the sudden brightness of the blackness.
Soon, Hailee slowly put down her hands and rested on her side. Her mouth dropped open to see the bright diamonds meet her eyes.
Hailee looked at Kelly, who she knew crafted these diamonds of these sizes and shapes.
"Girl, what have you done?"
"You are the Queen of Diamond! Your forefathers dug lands and found all diamonds in Australia! Just right, you are wearing them on your wedding day."
"You are making me blind the guests!"
"You should look spectacular on your wedding day!"
Hailee could only shake her head. "I wonder how many cubics of diamonds there are, and dad will pull out from the vault?"
"Why are you worrying about that?" asked Gigi, who is aware of how rich Hailee has been since day one when she met her.
But this queen of diamonds is only wearing faded jeans and a plain white t-shirt. Instantly, she wanted Hailee to be her friend. Putting on heavy makeup and dressing up like a socialite is only her way to hide her natural looks, but this girl is an insanely down-to-earth person.
"Alright, Hail! Turn around and look in the mirror."
Hailee slowly turned around and watched her reflection. She covers her mouth with both of her palms to see her entire wedding dress.
"I look too beautiful!"
"You are beautiful inside and out," said Kelly and Vera, who looked at each other and giggled afterward.
"I seconded that!" Hazel, Nadia, and Liza echoed while Janise and Gigi nodded.
"You are so beautiful, Hailee. We are so fortunate you are our sis-in-law." Sheena and Deana rush to her side and hug her.
"Thank you, girls." Her tears began streaming her eyes as emotion flooded inside her chest and praying
'Mom, grannies… I wish you all here….'
